ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method of implanting hair or hair-like strands in areas of the skin of animate beings, comprising a unique fabricated anchorage piece and a novel process for placing the same in the skin, utilizing a hypodermic needle having a grooved barrel and tip portion. The process or method comprises piercing the skin with the assemblage of needle and anchorage member carried thereby, and then advancing the member by means of a suitable plunger in the needle, such that the member is thrust below the surface of the skin while the needle tip is still inserted. The needle is then withdrawn, whereas the anchorage member remains embedded. Strands of hair or hair-like material tied or otherwise secured to the anchorage member emanate from the puncture in the skin created by the needle, thereby providing an especially natural and pleasing appearance not obtainable with most prior methods and procedures of hair replacement.
